I'm going to make a controversial statement. If someone in the room got up and beat Nintex to death, no one would have a right to stop him. No one

Would this someone need to restrict themselves to just beating or is that open to some interpretation?

South Carolina Dems have an history of being very susceptible to electability arguments. Biden is the Party man and they know exactly what they're getting.

Vom, sometimes the specificity of your knowledge of American politics is extremely unusual

Not that it's bad, I love your commentary

Well honestly I think I might be overextending myself here.
But Hillary won it by 50% last time. Whatever Sanders is selling, SC voters are not buying it.

Mmm.

I'm well familiar with electability arguments. My family has made such arguments my whole life.

That's not what I'm asking. We all  knew Biden would win and it was a matter of by how much but 50%? That's what shocks me.  I'm surprised by that number specifically.  I figured Sanders would get at least 20%.

Billionaire Democrat Tom Steyer will drop out of the presidential race Saturday night after a disappointing result in the South Carolina primary, according to a person familiar with Steyer's decision.

Steyer spent nearly $200 million on TV and digital ads after entering the race in July, according to Advertising Analytics, but he finished well behind the top Democratic contenders in each of the early states.

Only Biden and Steyer were really playing for South Carolina.

Super Tuesday will make it literally impossible for some candidates to contend further.

If Shady Bernie continues to be an asshole and wins Massachusetts (HER HOME STATE) over Warren, despite her being a fee-male, while she wins few delegates, she might be out.

I figure most that can will try to wait at least an extra week or two to get through Michigan and then Florida/Illinois/Ohio. But then I also figured more would wait until Super Tuesday just because.

Biden and Warren bombing on Super Tuesday is a pretty good outcome even if that means Bloomberg came through.

Amy for America obviously needs to wait for the Klobmentium to win her the second ballot at the convention. :klob
